GERMANY: Regulator checking sportswear sales tactics
By Leonie Barrie | 2 July 2012
The German competition regulator is looking at the way sportswear companies restrict the distribution of their products, especially over the internet, following complaints about moves to limit sales to authorised retailers.
The investigation has been prompted by Japanese athletic footwear and apparel company Asics, which is in the process of rolling out its 'Selective Distribution Policy' throughout Europe.
"Under this policy, Asics selects its authorised retailers on the basis of pre-defined criteria which every authorised retailer must meet in order to sell Asics products going forward," the company told just-style.
A separate statement from the Bundeskartellamt, the German competition regulator, said it was simply checking Asics' new delivery conditions rather than launching a blanket "investigation" against brand manufacturers.
However, it said several complaints have also been made by retailers against Adidas and Nike, although no probes are currently underway.
"We have a range of complaints from traders - also regarding the planned changes at Adidas," the statement said. "In this context, we are currently conducting an investigation for the delivery of the rules changes at Asics. Restrictions also play a role in online sales."
Asics said it wants to "ensure that the distribution meets the high requirements of the Asics products and the Asics brand image" including the shopping environment, product variety, product information, after-sales service and interaction with the consumer.
Adidas said it has been "following this strategy for several seasons now. As part of the implementation of this strategy we are regularly analysing and differentiating our distribution channels across Europe. Our new e-commerce guidelines will ensure that Adidas and Reebok will be presented in the right environment at all times."
Nike also told just-style it has a selective distribution policy in place in Europe under which it only appoints authorised retailers to sell Nike products.
"To be an authorised retailer you have to meet particular terms of sales and competencies. This model helps guarantee that consumers can be sure that all the products purchased online are genuine and meet all the requirements regarding the quality and customer service."

A Hamilton County woman has been charged with TennCare fraud involving doctor shopping - using TennCare healthcare insurance benefits to go to multiple doctors to obtain prescriptions for a controlled substance.
The Office of Inspector General (OIG) with assistance from the Hamilton County Sheriff, on Monday announced the arrest of Joanna E. Killingsworth, also known as Joanna E. McGee, 29, of Chattanooga. She is charged with five counts of fraudulently using TennCare to obtain a controlled substance by doctor shopping, and five counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud.
Ms. Killingsworth is accused of seeing two or more doctors within a 30-day period in an effort to receive prescriptions for controlled substances, with the physician office visits, prescriptions or both being paid for by TennCare.
"We are glad to have the doctor-shopping law available to go after people who are involved in this activity in the TennCare program," Inspector General Deborah Faulkner said. "Other states don't have this kind of tool and it's helped us weed out some of the prescription drug abuse in TennCare.
TennCare fraud is a Class E felony, carrying a sentence of up to two years in prison per charge. Obtaining a controlled substance by fraud is a Class D felony, carrying a sentence of up to four years in prison if convicted. District Attorney General William H. Cox III is prosecuting.
The OIG, which is separate from TennCare, began full operation in February 2005 and has investigated cases leading to over $3.5 million paid in restitution and recoupment to TennCare, with a total estimated cost avoidance of over $173 million for the TennCare program, according to latest figures. To date, over 1,900 people have been charged with TennCare fraud.
Through the OIG Cash for Tips Program established by the Legislature, Tennesseans can get cash rewards for TennCare fraud tips that lead to convictions. Anyone can report suspected TennCare fraud by calling 800 433-3982 toll-free from anywhere in Tennessee, or log on to www.tn.gov/tnoig/ and follow the prompts that read "Report TennCare Fraud."

Julie Schoen's New Yoga Guide Promises to Flatten Tummy in FLAT TUMMY YOGA
When asked which part of their body most women would like to improve on a recent internet survey, an overwhelming percentage agreed that their tummies are their biggest concern when it comes to their appearance. Ladies, line up. Popular yoga instructor Julie Schoen's brand new book, Flat Tummy Yoga, arms readers with everything needed to sculpt and flatten the midsection with nothing more than a yoga mat. Part of Little Pearl Publishing's Just Do Yoga series, Schoen's latest book will be free during January 23, 2013 exclusively on Amazon.
Looking at her, one would never guess that Schoen is the mother to a bouncing baby boy. In a short five months, Schoen has once again reclaimed her tummy, showing off a six-pack that everyone, let alone someone who just had a baby, would be envious of.
"I see so many women at the gym doing sets of serious crunches and sit-ups thinking that all of that discomfort will some day give them the lean, toned midsection they are after," laments the author, who claims that she hasn't done a sit-up or crunch in years. "Women know what they want, but they are clueless when it comes to knowing how to get it. I want to change that."
As promised, Flat Tummy Yoga does just that, providing the reader with Schoen's personal yoga routines, each geared towards specifically targeting the tummy. The book also offers sound advice for why sit-ups aren't the way to get a model-esque stomach and some of the best exercises to do every day to ensure a toned body come bikini season.
Flat Tummy Yoga will only be free January 23, 2013, so don't forget to head over to Amazon now to check it out!

How Will I Know?
Children at risk gain our attention for a variety of reasons.
Here are the most common.
- Atypical Behavior. An at-risk child habitually
displays atypical behavior, ranging from angry, disruptive,
hateful, and violent to withdrawn, sad, reticent, and fearful. A
child may constantly seek attention for any reason — whether
appropriate or inappropriate. Some children at risk disappear;
others act out. The key point is that the child's behavior is
atypical over an extended period of time. If a child consistently
displays disturbing or abnormal behavior, pay attention. Talk with
the parents, talk with the child, and dig deeper to find the root
of the behavior.
- Known History. Jill was diagnosed with fetal
alcohol syndrome at birth, and later with attention deficit
disorder, attachment disorder, and mental issues. Jill's uncle
adopted her when her mother was deemed unfit, but his own drug use,
addiction to sex, and transient lifestyle denied her any kind of
stability or values system. By age 6, she'd been kicked out of
every school she attended because she attacked other children. Her
history was well-known in her small town, and her uncle willingly
talked about her challenges. You may already be aware of a child
like Jill when he or she enters your ministry.
- Notification. You may be notified that a child
in your ministry is in foster care or living with relatives due to
domestic issues. There are legal and confidentiality issues related
to these children, so check with your pastor or ministry leader if
this is your situation.
Relationships and
At-risk kids are often threatened and inexperienced when it
comes to relationships and responsibility.
Kids LOVE these Sunday School resources!
Understand resistance. Children at risk have
typically experienced a great deal of loss in their lifetimes –
losing their parents and even siblings, losing loving relationships
to neglect or abuse, losing predictability and routine. And many of
these children have experienced these catastrophic losses
repeatedly. It's no wonder that some react by becoming resistant to
relationships — no matter how warm and well-intended. For a child
in this circumstance, be consistently kind, warm, gentle, genuine,
caring, and interested.
Require responsibility. Adults tend to coddle
struggling kids and attempt to shield them from further distress by
not holding them accountable. Yet one of the most effective ways to
help children build self-esteem and learn coping skills is to
intentionally create roles of responsibility.
Give kids purpose. Children at risk, who often
feel invisible and unimportant, will flourish — like any child
will — when given a sense of purpose. Create opportunities for
kids to be accountable to you, their peers, and themselves. Give
kids responsibilities that'll lead to personal and public
Be a relational teacher. Relationship-building
is like running a marathon. It takes commitment and time. Often a
child at risk has experienced a succession of broken relationships.
You can't make up for a lifetime of heartbreak, but you can be a
consistent, loving, predictable presence in the child's life.
Don't wait for a child who's at risk to "warm up" to you. A
child who's been routinely hurt and let down isn't likely to be
compelled to initiate a relationship with you. The child who causes
the most problems and elicits the least amount of nurturing from
you is the child most likely to need your love, compassion, and
care. Above all, remember that "relationship is an action, not a
Help at-risk kids help others. One of the most
beneficial things you can do for a child is to give him or her a
chance to serve someone in need. Caring for another nurtures a
sense of importance, responsibility, and love in the giver. It
allows a sense of control in a child who otherwise may not feel
control. It helps children see that they have something to

Your days are packed with meetings, phone calls, analysis of reports, financial models and a whole lot more. I hope you are getting your exercise and yoga in as well and in the most efficient way possible. This also means that I hope you know how many calories you are burning during your workouts.
The number of calories we burn during any cardio or yoga workout, depends on many different factors such as gender, body weight, heart rate, intensity of the workout, and the ratio of lean muscle to body fat for any given individual. In the case of yoga, we must also consider what kind of yoga we are doing—Vinyasa? Slow Flow? Power? Ashtanga? Bikram? Restorative? Yin?
Most of us exercise for one of several reasons:
- We want to build muscle mass and/or tone.
- We want to become more flexible.
- We enjoy the activities we choose.
- We love the high that ensues from the release of endorphins, adrenaline, cortisol, and the other feel-good chemicals that working out causes the brain and endocrine system to release.
- Exercise and yoga elevates our mood and productivity.
- We want to have a healthy and strong heart.
- We want to look good (even disregarding weight loss, working out and yoga give us a healthy glow and puts smiles on our faces).
- We hope to feel vital and positive inside and to emanate our positive energy to others and the world at large.
- We hope to prevent and/or heal injuries.
- We want to feel a sense of freedom from our thoughts and routines, or as the yogis say, clarity of mind. Often it is at these times that our best professional Eureka moments occur.
Below are some charts and articles I found that helped answer my questions about how many calories on average we can burn during different cardio and yoga workouts and what some guidelines are for losing weight. I hope they answer some of your questions as well.
Exercise For Weight Loss: Calories burned in 1 hour
By Mayo Clinic Staff
If you click on the link below, you can see that for the average person at an average weight of 160 pounds, jumping rope, Tae kwon do, running, and stair treadmill top the charts as the highest calorie burning workouts listed. Rollerblading, football, singles tennis, basketball, and high-impact aerobics come in next on the chart and then swimming and so on and so forth. Interestingly yoga is not included in this chart. Though very informative, in my opinion, the chart falls short of illustrating how the intensity for each activity changes the statistics. For instance, it only looks at leisure cycling rather than bicycle racing. The chart is nonetheless very helpful and you can refer to it as one resource to learn more about the effectiveness of the workout/exercise choices you make.
Below is information from another source I found that analyzes things more specifically than the above chart and takes into account different intensities of workouts as well as in the case of swimming, even strokes:
How Many Calories Am I Burning When I Exercise?
By Lisa Balbach
Click here to read the piece.
How Many Calories Are You Really Burning?
By Amby Burfoot
Many people believe that walking and running the same distance burns an equal number of calories. According to an article in Runner's World magazine, this is not the case. In his 2005 analysis of calories burned by running compared to walking, Burfoot wrote, "If you think running and walking both torch the same number of calories per mile, you better put down that cookie." Check out the excerpts below.
"Our argument began when I told Swain that both walking and running burn the same number of calories per mile. I was absolutely certain of this fact for two unassailable reasons: (1) I had read it a billion times; and (2) I had repeated it a billion times. Most runners have heard that running burns about 100 calories a mile. And since walking a mile requires you to move the same body weight over the same distance, walking should also burn about 100 calories a mile. Sir Isaac Newton said so."
Swain was unimpressed by my junior-high physics. 'When you perform a continuous exercise, you burn five calories for every liter of oxygen you consume,' he said. 'And running in general consumes a lot more oxygen than walking.'"
"Running and walking aren't as comparable as I had imagined. When you walk, you keep your legs mostly straight, and your center of gravity rides along fairly smoothly on top of your legs. In running, we actually jump from one foot to the other. Each jump raises our center of gravity when we take off, and lowers it when we land, since we bend the knee to absorb the shock. This continual rise and fall of our weight requires a tremendous amount of Newtonian force (fighting gravity) on both takeoff and landing."
View Burfoot's entire article here.
I had to be more specific in my searches to target yoga and calorie burning measures. What I found is that the number of calories we burn in one hour of yoga depends on all of the above-mentioned factors (gender, body weight, muscle to fat ratio..etc.) as well as the type of yoga we practice. Power and Vinyasa yoga rate as the top calorie burners of all the yoga systems (An interesting finding is that mere sweat does not do the job). As with running versus walking, the more we work against gravity, which is exactly what goes on in vinyasa yoga with all of the jumping forward and jumping back, the higher we can elevate our heart rate and the more calories we can burn. However, most forms of yoga do not bring us to the threshold that meets aerobic exercise, which optimizes the health of our heart and helps us to lose weight without supplementary cardio exercise.
I found an article in Women's Health magazine, "Benefits of Yoga: Does Yoga Really Burn Fat?" by Vicki Glembocki, with interesting conclusions from various research projects. Here is an excerpt:
"The researchers found that although the yoga did boost strength, flexibility, endurance, and balance, it barely raised either the women's maximum heart rate or their VO2 max (that's the amount of oxygen a body converts into energy during each minute of maxed-out exercise—the higher the number, the fitter a person's lungs). In other words, it did squat to boost their cardiovascular fitness.
The yoga wasn't intense enough," says John P. Porcari, the exercise physiologist who led the study at the University of Wisconsin's Human Performance Lab. To improve or maintain heart health, the U.S. Department of Health advises pushing your ticker into its aerobic zone—60 to 85 percent of the maximum heart rate—for a total of 75 minutes every week. You can hit that pace by doing vigorous activities (like running) that get the heart into the high end of that zone for at least 75 minutes, or with enough moderate exercise (like walking) to hit the low end for at least two and a half hours. You don't hit it doing Hatha."

And as far as yoga and losing weight are concerned, click here for what the Mayo Clinic has to say.
I hope that this information helps you to design the most effective exercise workouts for yourself. Please feel free to email me with any questions at email@example.com.

I edited it after you saw it.
I loved this story in FDNS and am really looking forward to it. Mario Bello is a fantastic choice because she can be both vulnerable and a badass. I never thought I would utter these words but I can't wait to see a movie on Lifetime!
(full disclosure: I recently watched The Unauthorized Story of Saved By the Bell and The Brittany Murphy Story )
I saw this today thanks to a preview screener from Lifetime. Whoa. No punches pulled here. Parts of the first half hour are very hard to watch.
It's very faithful to the novella, although some things are shifted around and some extended scenes in the text are tightened up. It's very much a one-woman show -- Bello is in every second of it. Olympia Dukakis is pretty funny as the personification of one of Tess's characters.
This was filmed in and around Halifax, NS. I'm pretty sure I recognized buildings from the Dalhousie University campus (my alma mater) early in the film.
Have the date circled. Sound like a winner.

Hooksett man threatened, hit Manchester officer with 2x4, police say
Officers went to D & D Cabinets, 21 West Auburn St. about 3 p.m. for a report of a disorderly man who was damaging property.
Inside the business, officers found damaged cabinets, walls and a fax machine. They located the man, identified as David McCloud, 43, of 5 Birchwood Lane, who police said immediately became aggressive towards the officers.
Lt. Maureen Tessier said the business is owned by McCloud's father and McCloud has some connection to it as well, although she did not know what that was. In 2012 filings with the state Secretary of State's Office, David McCloud is listed as president of the company and Richard McCloud, vice president.
As officers tried to figure out why McCloud was causing damage, police said McCloud became increasingly agitated and, at one point, told the officers they should move a metal file on a table or he might plunge it into one of their necks.
McCloud paced around the room, jumped up onto a table and began struggling with the officers when they tried to restrain him. They sprayed him with pepper spray, which did not work to subdue him.
Instead, police said McCloud grabbed an eight-foot, 2x4 and swung it at the officers, hitting Officer Rick Brown in the back as he turned to shield his head. Brown was not injured.
Police said McCloud tried to grab a second piece of wood and that's when police zapped him with the stun gun. He was arrested on charges of criminal mischief, criminal threatening and second degree assault.

Jason Isringhausen has been impressive this spring despite being sidelined briefly by arm problems, but David Waldstein of the New York Times reports that the Mets have asked him "to remain in extended spring training for a week or two to increase his arm strength and reassure them that his elbow is healthy."

Your Jeff Francoeur apologist quote of the day
Mar 29, 2011, 10:00 AM EDT
The year-after-year Jeff Francoeur propaganda — or, as I shall henceforth call it, "Francoeurganda" — has been well-cataloged by now. No matter how poorly he does, someone is going to say that this, by gum, is the year he breaks out. No matter how little he progresses, Francoeur himself is going to say that he's…
The Yankees technology-unfriendly policies remain in place for 2011
Mar 29, 2011, 9:30 AM EDT
I get why the Yankees want to charge so much to park at a game — encouraging the use of mass transit is a good thing — but I don't get why they don't wish to encourage mass communications as well. Specifically, why they have continued their policy of not allowing iPads, e-readers and the…

We like to poke fun at the "David Eckstein is scrappy" thing around here, but that's more a commentary on the people who try to make him into something he isn't as a player, not a personal thing about Eckstein.
